Chapter 4 Exchange Background e-Learning Objectives Exchange surfaces All of the cells in your body need constant supplies of oxygen and nutrients‚ and need to get rid of waste materials‚ such as carbon dioxide‚ that are produced in their metabolic reactions. These substances are obtained from‚ or released to‚ the external environment‚ through your body’s surface. Cells and organisms have problems of scale to solve as they get bigger. As an organism gets Cube with 1 cm sides bigger‚ both its

Parkinson’s is a chronic‚ severe and debilitating brain disorder which cannot yet be cured: so what are the current available treatments to help relieve the disorder’s symptoms? The Problem Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a progressive‚ degenerative neurological disorder which is caused by nerve cell death in the midbrain called the substantia nigra which is responsible for producing neurotransmitters dopamine. The disease is named after the English doctor James Parkinson‚ who published the first detailed

Chapter 12 Cyclins and cyclin-dependent kinases are regulatory proteins that assist in the cell cycle. Particular protein kinases give the go-ahead signals at G1 and G2 checkpoints. These protein kinases are present at a constant concentration in the cell but are inactive unless in the presence of cyclin‚ these are cyclin dependent kinases. The activity of a cdk rises and falls with the concentration of cyclin. Cyclin levels rise during the S and G2 phases then fall abruptly in the M phase

1.1.1 In small unicellular organisms‚ substances move around slowly by diffusion. Diffusion is too slow to move substances round the larger bodies of multicellular organisms. They have a circulatory system: substances are carried in blood pumped by a heart. In a closed circulatory system (eg in vertebrates) blood is enclosed in narrow blood vessels. This increases efficiency: blood travels faster as a higher pressure is generated. Valves ensure blood flows in one direction:

CHAPTER 1 Interest in the human body and how it functions probably developed when our ancestors began to think about the reasons why people became ill and died. All earlier cultures had someone designated as a healer who was responsible for finding plants and herbs that cured body disorders. This healer also was responsible for praying or invoking the assistance of past ancestors to help in the healing process. As cultures developed and science began to evolve‚ interest in and knowledge about
